minus-squareObi@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoAre there really 0 Renaults in the US? Or I guess maybe just a few imported ones, but like they aren’t officially sold there? Are any other French brands available? I know at least the Germans are. I guess French cars are too “sensible” for the US market?
minus-squareTheIllustrativeMan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7arrow-down1·1 year agoThe only French automaker in the US is Bugatti, and it’s questionable how French they are. I’m hoping the Stellantis merger leads to more French cars here. Peugeot, Renault, Alpine, Citroen, and DS all have cars I’d be interested in.

Back in the days I wouldn’t buy them and preferred Japanese for reliability but I hear in more recent times they’ve become much more reliable as well.
